Black Mountain Correctional Center for
Women
prisoners help renovate home

Prisoners and prison staff of the minimum security Black
Mountain Correctional Center for Women are joining with community
volunteers the week of August 24 to renovate a home in the
community. This is the eighth year the prison has worked with
Prison Fellowship volunteers in a community service project to
help an area family.

Prison superintendent Renae Brame says correction staff, ten
inmates, Prison Fellowship volunteers and Baptist men and women
will renovate a home on Dyer Road. They will build a new front
porch, raise and secure sagging flooring, replace siding, make
electrical repairs, clean the house thoroughly and paint it
inside and out.

As in the past eight years, meals will be coordinated by
Swannanoa Valley Christian Ministries and prepared by churches in
the Swannanoa Valley area. Prisoners will take part in
celebration on completion of the project Friday, August 28 at 6
PM. Richard Payne of Prison Fellowship will speak at the
celebration.
